Josh Rock etched himself into Premier League history when he became the first Irish player to land a perfect leg in the Premier League against Gian van Veen during the 2026 competition.
The reigning World Cup winner produced a moment of magic against World Darts Championship runner-up to send the 10,000 strong crowd inside the SSE Arena in Belfast into raptures as he pinned double 12 to cap off a sensational leg of darts.
Whilst Rock's clash with the Dutch number one ultimately ended in defeat, his nine-dart feat ensured his name went down in PDC folklore, joining 12 other players to have recorded tungsten perfection in the tournament's history.
